The Birds Glorify Our Creator

I'm just giving credit where credit is due

When birds fly in a V-shape,

it’s obvious that they had an designer

who gave them the instinct to do what they do.

That’s one person I know I admire.

 

The albatross

glides for hours without flapping its wings.

Hummingbirds’ hearts

beat 1,200 times per minute.

Eagles are known for their keen farsightedness,

which is used to denote wisdom

that’s deep and infinite.

 

Birds are more loving than humans at times.

They take care of their kids

while some of us openly refuse.

                        

It’s natural to be excited

when one’s woman is pregnant.

Too bad too many sigh

as if such is terrible news.

 

The Bald Ibis

stays with its mate

until it grows old and dies.

We humans tend to divorce over trivial reasons.

 

Marriage is commonly perceived

as just something else to do.

People often call it quits

when the passion is no longer steaming.

 

Geese swoop down and check on other geese

that are injured or tired

and thus in need of a break.

People will walk pass someone dying

and won’t think twice.

Hopefully, you don’t have this heartless trait.

 

The birds instinctively glorify our Creator.

How much more so

should that be the case with you and me?

There’s a significant difference

between God and religion

Are all paths connected to the truth

that sets people free?

 

This is for us to decide on our own

Nevertheless, existing is so much evidence

that points to a Maker.

It’s not wise

to refer to this as thinking too much.

 

One of our biggest flaws could be

that we come to conclusions

before carefully looking at all of the facts.

We all know people who do this way too often.

What an excellent presentation of God as our Creator! Your vivid poetry brings Truth in a marvelous way, and your choice of words woven to present a masterfully written poem is such a blessing. The closing lines leave the reader with wisdom to ponder on - wonderful impact!

Sir, this is one of the finest comparisions of creation in relation to God and His plan...very well penned and very uplifting.

" In college, however, I recognized that I had a talent to write and influence other people's lives"

Influence of the possitive and bringing light to the dark is a talent indeed...a God given talent...well done sir.

Allen
